Computer vision delivery pipeline
The scope of Itransition's service offering encompasses steps required to conceptualize, build, implement, and fine-tune a computer vision solution matching your corporate goals and requirements.
1
Business analysis
We start by identifying your corporate needs and evaluating your current tech ecosystem. Then, we help you decide whether to opt for computer vision or more conventional technologies in specific use cases. We also define the solution’s functional and non-functional requirements and set up a roadmap detailing the project's scope, objectives, deliverables, and timeframes.
2
Initial data analysis
We carry out an exploratory analysis to map available image data sources and evaluate their quality and reliability. These can include corporate data assets complemented with public databases and other external sources.
3
Product design
We select a suitable tech stack and prepare a specification detailing the CV solution’s architecture, modules and features, interface wireframes, and integrations with other software and data collection devices, such as IoT sensors or cameras. We can also deliver a proof of concept to ensure the project’s feasibility and financial viability while highlighting potential adoption challenges.
4
Building the CV solution
We perform all necessary data pre-processing tasks, including data cleansing, annotation and transformation. Then, we define the solution’s evaluation criteria and rely on various machine learning algorithms (including deep learning) to train one or more models with cleaned data sets, making sure to achieve the desired output.
5
Model integration and deployment
We embed the trained model into the software architecture to fuel its computer vision-based features with the model’s output. Then, we set up all necessary API- or ESB-based integrations and finally deploy the solution in the target environment, be it on-premise or cloud-based.
6
Support
We offer user training and support, maintenance, and regular updates. Our team can also release additional features and, with the customer’s approval, fine-tune the CV model with new training data to adjust its output and improve accuracy.

FAQ about computer vision
How do I know if I can solve my problem with computer vision?
While computer vision solutions, especially when combined with other AI-based tools, have proven very effective for numerous use cases, their adoption can be more complex, time-consuming, and demanding in terms of pricing than more traditional technologies. During your project’s early assessment phase, our team of consultants will help you assess whether computer vision is worth the investment and is truly the best option to address your business challenges compared to conventional software or process changes.
How accurate is computer vision?
When performing tasks such as object identification or image recognition and classification, as pointed out by SAS, cutting-edge computer vision systems powered by deep learning models and neural networks can achieve close to 99% accuracy.
How much does computer vision software cost?
The total investment to implement a computer vision system can vary widely depending on your goals and business scenario. That said, basic PoC implementation typically starts from $10,000. The range of cost factors you should take into account typically include data quality and model accuracy requirements, tech stack, software architecture, integrations, IT infrastructure, third-party licenses, deployment environment, and maintenance costs. For a more accurate estimate, get in touch with Itransition’s consultants.
What are the limitations of computer vision?
Despite their impressive performance across a variety of use cases, computer vision systems cannot yet achieve 100% accuracy. The data-driven nature of computer vision shared with other AI-related technologies, along with its tendency to make decisions and predictions in an inscrutable way like a black box, can also raise concerns about data security and potential CV model bias. Itransition’s experts can help you mitigate this issue by fuelling algorithms with high-quality data and retraining AI and machine learning models across multiple iterations to fine-tune their output, as recommended by AIOps best practices.
